Books:

Heroes:

"I'm Push the bully, and what I hate are new kids and sissies, dumb kids and smart, rich kids, poor kids, kids who wear glasses, talk funny, show off, patrol boys and wise guys and kids who pass pencils and water the plants--and cripples, ESPECIALLY cripples. I love nobody loved.

One time I was pushing this red-haired kid (I'm a pusher, no hitter, no belter; an aggressor of marginal violence, I hate REAL force) and his mother stuck her head out the window and shouted something I've never forgotten. 'PUSH,' she yelled. 'YOU, PUSH. You pick on him because you wish you had his red hair!' It's true; I DID wish I had his red hair. I wish I were tall, or fat, or thin. I wish I had different eyes, different hands, a mother in the supermarket. I wish I were a man, a small boy, a girl in the choir. I'm a coveter, a Boston Blackie of the heart, casing the world. Endlessly I covet and case."

blustery is not a mood but a weather condition

the only instance of your poor judgment would be to mistrust it. mistrust the superior wisdom of your body. beautiful and pure, obscure but sure. manhattan will take you, but let it be in a while....

obsession (and I think it’s gonna be a long, long time)
